Sep 13, 2004 21:04:39 Good evening,

I am posting this board (where I usually lurk) in order to make an announcement and ask a question.

For anyone who knows what a MUSH or MUX is, I have a site and plan to craft a Ravenloft-based MUX. Now, both WotC and White Wolf have allowed people to do this thing, so long as they include a disclaimer and they do not profit by it. Does anyone know of any problems with using the setting so long as all legal disclaimers are in place? We're also looking for staff and players, so if anyone's interested, feel free to reply to this thread.

Sep 14, 2004 4:15:53 I don't know any of the rules regarding it, however, I saw in this month's PC Gamer (I think that's the mag), that a DnD MMORPG is on the way- unfortunately, it's Eberron, and not the world everyone wants- FR. However, if you have the means and the resources to create a RL MMO, you have my support, and hopefully enough of others to make it successful. It sounds like something I just might have to join in on- I already know it would be better than that horrid Ultima Online (sorry, don't like UO at all).

Sep 14, 2004 13:21:14 Thanks for the reply. But I thought I was clear enough. It's not an MMO. it's purely text-based, which IMHO, works better for RP in some ways.

If you need to, look up the definition of a MUSH or MUX to see what it is we're building.

Sep 14, 2004 17:05:00 H.. I'm interested... what is the core of the MUSH/MUD? Custom or an existing engine? (I've been admin of a small MUD myself.)

Since WW seems to hold the license for it I'd rather be sure to mail their legal department to ask if it's fine with them. Written permission is always better than assuming things. ;)
